| Geez, I didn't even mention that the fine print clearly indicated that you get a "Texas" sized flyswatter on any raw meat purchase over 5 pounds. Limited to one per customer, must be 21 and over, or 22. See cashier for details. Yup, Aunt Mark | |||||
| I have a chart with all of | 1 Relevance | 11 years ago | Eameshead | General discussion | |
| I have a chart with all of the US patent numbers correlated to inclusive dates. It goes back to 1836. It is copyrighted so I don't think I should re post it here… but it didn't take me too long to find it by googling the hell out of "US patent numbers and dates" or something along those lines. The last long number on the Herman Miller paper label (lower right hand column number) is the one that was current when the chair was produced. As for shock mounts, I have only re glued one existing (arm rest area) mount on a 671, and have not used any of the new ones ... | |||||
| Thanks Leif for the useful | 1 Relevance | 11 years ago | bj | General discussion | |
| Thanks Leif for the useful comments. I will indeed change the direction of the boards, according to the grain, to average out the movement. Hey Mark, I was thinking the same about the wishbones! Locally 12 wishbones turned up for sale. The number is mouthwatering, but this also made the total for the chairs to high for my current budget. I have 10 oak mollers though, model 80, but they have a more neutral appearance.. SDR, I now added a pic of my own, as the other photo was for the sake of illustration (didn't had them at home yet). It has two holes with I p ... | |||||

| ... hey kurt østervig And that is not to suggest it is a Kurt Østervig design. In the thread I mention that I think the chair looks like a Norwegian design, which would definitely suggest against a Danish designer. And I still think it looks Norwegian.

| I have seen one that was marked with a J.L. Møller label. Early 60s judging by the label. Never seen it in any catalogs. edit: it was on LiveAuctioneers, but the auctioneer did not recognize the Møller label so it didn't mention the name anywhere. I can check and see if I have an old bookmark or something. | |||||
| Those are the feet to the | 1 Relevance | 11 years ago | leif ericson - Zephyr Renner | General discussion | |
| Those are the feet to the desk. They didn't account for wood shrinkage in the hot dry air of Tucson. So they fell out. I am rather curious if you pull off one of the feet on the record cabinet what it looks like. Obviously the person who designed the record cabinet knew how to account for wood movement so the feet would stay in. | |||||
| Minimoma, | 1 Relevance | 11 years ago | Eameshead | General discussion | |
| Minimoma, That's funny, I was just thinking that Joshua's examples were VERY typical of the several upholstered shells that I have seen over 25 years or so. Right down to the painted shock mounts! (I have this same catalog, but it didn't make me feel like Joshua's were any different) Up close, the lighter ones look like a "fleck stone" or fake granite type of surface. It might be possible that from year to year the treatments to the back changed a bit? Also, it is worth noting that there are many early arm shells (upholstered in the same manner) that were no ... | |||||
| Herman Miller logo with a B & | 1 Relevance | 11 years ago | varsity_design | General discussion | |
| Herman Miller logo with a B & Z? Sorry to dig up an old thread but I've hit a road block with my own research. I just picked up this parchment sideshell and have never seen this embossed 'B' before, any thoughts? If my research is correct, the embossed 'HERMAN MILLER' didn't start until 1960. The chair also came with an H base w/ white nylon/plastic glides, which didn't start until '57 (assuming they're original). Do the markings on the shock mounts mean anything? Thanks in advance. | |||||

| Hi cdsilva, I bet Leif can answer for himself. About me targeting him, didn't you read a little to much into my comment? "Have yoou been in contact with a library?" Yes, I see now that I spelled "yoou" wrong, but could you please tell me where you find the targeting? So that I don't have to make the mistake again. You know, english isn't my native language. | |||||
| leif ericson, | 1 Relevance | 11 years ago | kazimir | General discussion | |
| leif ericson, thanks for pointing out the correct term for those joints - and also the the link to the sofa! I think I was able to id the chair - in a place so obvious that I didn't even consider it initially: Percival Lafer's own website: It is listed in his portfolio as the MP-091 series, and at least from the one photo he has up it appears to be the identical chair & details. see below: http://www.percivallafer.com/#!mp-091/cbtd | |||||

| Nice eye, teakhound. I had passed by that set a few days ago online and didn't make the connection to this catalog. A photo of the characteristic Vodder brand is also there, except clearly missing the Finn Juhl part. You and leif should advise Wright accordingly. I would think they would appropriately update the listing, rather than leave the more marketable current FJ attribution. On a related note, who is "P"? No Vodder family history popped up during my prelim google searches. | |||||

| And as tempted as I was to show my shorts today (not to mention last evenings fabulous dinner attire)... I didn't. The chairs are much more impressive. But I did learn a new naughty limerick, and also have noticed that the intelligent turkey's in my county are nervous. And I couldn't locate one handsome Pilgrim in any online photograph. not one. Most of them look like Appalachian Americans. I do like their shoes however. Hi, Aunt Mark ps again, very nice work. | |||||
| It looks like some | 1 Relevance | 11 years ago | Spanky | General discussion | |
| It looks like some Yugoslavian-made lounge chairs that someone had me make cushions for a few years ago but I didn't take photos so I can't say for sure. The wood has that same look, though---appears to be a walnut-colored lacquer over a lighter wood like beech or something. I don't believe there's any way to touch up that scratch on the arm rest. If it is a tinted lacquer you may be best off stripping and refinishing completely. (Just be aware that if it's beech, it won't take conventional stain well.) As for the straps, those side to side ones were add ... | |||||

| ... clean cloths as well. I need to reiterate the lucky part on the veneer. It only occurred to me last weekend to try to shave off a piece of the snapped seat rail rather than procure a small piece of veneer facing. I just eyeballed the first run on the table saw to see how thin a piece I could make, never thinking that I would hit the right thickness on the first pass. Also, as you can see from the scrap piece in the photo, there was only a little piece of finished surface left, and that piece just happened to have a grain pattern that matched pretty close ... | |||||
